Deus Ex: Human Revolution Will Not Feature Multiplayer

Speaking to Eidos Montreal's Game Director Jean-Francois Dugas, IGN Games confirmed that the teams' recently renamed Deus Ex: Human Revolution will only be a single-player experience. The prequel is set to arrive on console and PC sometime later this year.

Deus Ex: Human Revolution is a single-player game only. Being the first project out of the new Eidos Montreal studio, and staying true to the Deus Ex legacy, the development team wanted to focus purely on the single-player experience to ensure we delivered on that front.

Dugas goes on to comment that although Human Revolution shares some similarities with Quantic Dreams' Heavy Rain in terms of "choices and consequences," the overall game experience will be very different.

Smokin'.

Bryn says: Does it bother you that the new Deus Ex won't feature any sort of multiplayer? It doesn't worry me one bit. I'd rather have a rock-solid single-player experience that holds true to the series' roots than some extra junk tacked on. Would you like to have seen multiplayer in the new game?
